The biggest names in polo were in action on the Queen's Ground at Guards Polo Club, Windsor Great Park in a bid to win the Cartier Queen's Cup 2014. The tournament itself began on Tuesday 20th May, commencing three weeks of electrifying high-goal polo. 15 teams entered the prestigious tournament, with the historic final match played in the presence of HM The Queen and a strong crowd of polo aficionados.

The summit of the day was the exhilarating play for the Queen's Cup between Zacara and Talandracas. An impressive performance over the highly regarded Talandracas ensured that Zacara patron Lyndon Lea stepped forward to receive the trophy from HM The Queen. In fact Zacara had an easier time than even they thought possible, winning the game 10-7, and were so dominant in the first half of the match that they were 6-2 up at half-time.
